It sounds like the Suns want Finley real bad now. They shouldn't have let Joe Johnson go. But I guess they didn't want to pay him the big bucks. They may end up overpaying for Finley now.

We could be the Dallas Mavs of the East.

"I've spoken with Michael and he really appreciates the interest," Colangelo said. "But money will be a factor with him. That's just the way it is, so we'll see what happens. Either way, we really like our team."

^^bullcrap...colangelo wants finley so bad he'd trade away diaw and a draft pick if he had to (if finley was on dallas and his contract was shorterand less money)

They lett JJ go because they care more about money than winning. There's simply no other reason to let a player that talented leave.

to some degree I have to agree with you. Last year they lucked out and had the season they had. They lucked out in that Cuban didn't re-sign nash, and that the clipps didn't match Q. Now they are spinning their wheels and trying to sell their fans on Raja bell and Jim Jackson... Oh and now they are going to get finley and everything will be all good!!! LOL.. I must give it to colangelo, he is a used car salesman if I ever saw one. Now I know we will get the usual responses that the suns are still better than the knicks!!! Well if that is the case, then how the mighty have fallen when you have to compare yourself to a 33 win team to determine how good you are....

Agreed. JJ is young and more suited for their fast up & down style. Mavs werent close to being as fast.
